Chapter 52: Beautiful lady
#AFTERNOON#
#HOSPITAL#
Sasha's point of view
"Mom," we both said at the same time, and I quickly glanced at him. Did he just call her 'mom' too, or am I imagining it?
She stopped in her tracks, looking around at everyone, then whispered something to Paul and he replied immediately and her eyes landed on Knight, lighting up with a smile that just left me even more puzzled.
"What... What are you two doing here?" I asked, rolling my eyes and frowning at them.
"Hey, at least let them come in all the way first, girl. That’s kinda rude," Bluey jumped in, and I sighed, shooting them a glare.
"Good morning —oh wait, it's already afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence," Bluey’s mom said with a smile, which my mom returned. Yeah, once Bluey and I became friends, our parents got a bit closer, too.
"Good to see you, Callista! It’s been a while," my mom responded, grinning and reaching out for a handshake.
"It really has! How have you been?" Mom asked while shaking her hand.
"I'm doing alright... just came to check on my kids," Mom said, leaving us all a bit puzzled.
"Your kids? You mean your daughter, Sasha?" Bluey's mom inquired, and Mom let out a sigh.
"Sasha?" I heard Knight mumble, and I turned to find him looking at me intently, which threw me off a bit. What’s up with Bluey's boyfriend?
"It’s a long story, but don’t worry. You’ll get it soon enough. That’s actually why I’m here," Mom said, shifting her focus back to me.
"Afternoon, Mom," Bluey chimed in, and Mom's face lit up with a smile right away.
"Oh my goodness, is this Bluey? She's grown so big and matured! I swear I didn't recognize her for a while," Mom said with a chuckle.
"How are you doing, honey? And why are you in a hospital gown?" Mom asked, staring at her worriedly.
"It's nothing serious, I wasn't feeling well some days back, but I'm okay now," Bluey said, and Mom nodded.
"I'm sorry about that. You've become so thick that I could mistake you for your mom's sister," she said, and Bluey's mom chuckled.
"That's so true, Benjamin said that too" Mom said with a smile.
"Is he........??" Mom asked, staring at Knight and the way Bluey was clinging onto his hands.
"Oh, yes, he's my boyfriend. Meet Knight, my boyfriend, and baby, this is Sasha's mom," Bluey said, but neither of them said anything. Knight just continued staring at Mom and then back to me while Mom did the same.
"Glad you're okay now," she said and glanced at Knight on the bed, who was staring at Mom like he'd seen a ghost.
"What are you doing here, Mom??" I asked, and she broke the stare immediately.
"You'll soon find out, honey. Please be patient and let me speak...... I promise you're going to love this," she pleaded, and Bluey gave me a look that said, 'sit down and listen,' so I did.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Lawrence. Sorry I didn't greet you," Bluey said as he smiled lightly.
Well, you see... Dad doesn't talk too much, and most times he just nods or hums in reply when he's being spoken to.
"How are you doing Bluey??"He asked.
"I'm fine, thanks"Bluey said with a smile.
"Sorry, there aren't many chairs for you guys to sit on," Bluey's mom said, and she shook her head immediately.
"It's fine, Callista; I actually would prefer standing up," Mom said,
"How are you doing princess, you won't even greet your daddy??"He asked with hurt laced in his voice.
"Good afternoon dad"I greeted with a faux smile. Well I and dad used to be really really closed untill what happened.
"So you guys must be wondering why we're here, and I'm going to tell you the reason why," she said, inhaling sharply as she stared at Knight.
"Okay, what's wrong with her? I've noticed that she has been staring at Knight a lot since she walked into this room."
"Paul, my private investigator, called me and for the first time told me some good news that we've been longing to hear... he told me that he found my son. For a while, I felt my heart beating faster than usual; after so many years... they found him," Mom said, and I sprang up immediately.
"They found Flinn? Where's his mom? Oh my God, I can't wait to see him!" I said excitedly and walked closer to her.
"Come on, tell me quickly, where's my brother?" I asked happily.
"He's right here in this room, Sasha," she said, making me even more confused.
"He's right here? What are you trying to say? Wait... Did you find out that he's dead and you're trying to say that his ghost is in this room?" I asked tearfully, about to burst into tears.
"That's not what I meant, honey," Mom said, and I sighed in relief immediately.
"Then... what do you mean by he's in this room?" I asked, wiping my tears as I stared at her and Dad. The only males in this room right now are Dad, Cody, Creed, his boyfriend, Axe, Knight, and finally, little Benjamin. So what is she trying to say? I thought, waiting for her response.
"He's there," Mom said, pointing at Knight, while we all watched her as if she'd gone crazy.
. "What? What's wrong with you, Mom? You're beginning to make everyone in this room uncomfortable," I said and turned to Knight immediately.
"I'm sorry about that, Knight. I don't know what's wrong with her," I said, but he shook his head instead.
"It's fine. It's not like she's not saying the truth, Sosha," he said, and for a minute, I didn't even know what to think. ... 'Sosha?' Only Flinn used to call me that name, 'Sosha.' He gave me that name after we finished watching a movie, 'Willow,' a movie made in the eighties where the main lead and his family are dwarfs, and the girl in the movie was also named Sasha, but they always pronounced it as Sosha. So Knight began calling me that. At first, I was mad he was calling me that, but with time... I began to love it.
"Flinn?" I said and he let out a charming smile immediately.
"I can't believe I didn't recognize you, little sis! You grew so big!" he said, and everyone, apart from Mom and Dad, gasped immediately.
"Wait, Knight, is... is she your sister?" Cody asked with wide eyes, and Knight nodded, staring at me.
After I regained my memory, I noticed she began to look really familiar, but I couldn't pinpoint where I'd seen her. I mean, I never expected that she was my sister all along!" he said, and Cody turned to me immediately.
"You... you said your brother ran away from home! Wow, this world is indeed a small world!" Cody said, but I couldn't respond. I mean, I was yet to recover from the shock.
I shrieked and immediately ran to him, hugging him tightly. Bluey smiled and moved away, giving me more space so that I could hug him.
"I missed you so much! How could you leave me alone for all these years, Flinn?" I said, crying really hard.
"It was so lonely and boring without you, and at some point, I almost ran away to come find you, Brother," I said, and he began patting my back.
"I'm sorry, sis. I swear I always thought about you, and I was going to return home, but then some group of people attacked me and threw me off a bridge... I actually recovered my memory some days ago, and I planned that after I'm discharged from the hospital, I'll come find you. I didn't know that you've been with me all this while," he said, and I hiccuped loudly.
"I always thought your eyes looked so much alike. If I had known that you were my Flinn, I would have become so clingy and told you all about our childhood memories to make you remember me," I said, and he chuckled.
"Well, you don't have to worry about that again. The most important thing is I remember you now, and we're reunited," he said, and I smiled widely after he said that.
"But really, you can't blame me... you've grown so huge, and oh, look at all these tattoos," I said after breaking the hug, and he chuckled.
"I'm so happy right now," I muttered with a bright smile and placed my hands on his cheek.
"This feels like a dream... a very sweet dream," I said, and he laughed softly.
"How did you know that he's Flinn, Paul?" I asked and turned to Paul.
"Um... I heard him telling his friend that he has regained his memories. Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I just got curious when I heard you say that, and the moment you mentioned the name that the little girl was calling you, 'Flinn Lawrence,' I grew really suspicious and decided to do some digging on you... and that's how I found out that you were the one that I've been searching for for the last 12 years," he said with a smile.
"So I called your parents and told them about you, and they immediately took a flight here. I'm glad I finally brought good news to them after so many years," he said and turned to Mom.
"Thank you so much, Paul. You've really given your best, and we're grateful," I said, and he nodded.
"It was fun, and I'm happy that I've finally done what I've been trying to do for what feels like forever. Mission accomplished," he said with a smile.
"Yeah, mission accomplished indeed," I said and glanced at Knight.
"So, should I call you Knight or Flinn??"I said and he chuckled immediately.
"Anyone, Sosha"He said and I chuckled.
"Don't you think it's high time you stop calling me that?"I asked.
"Okay, that's enough. It's my time to cuddle him," Bluey said and pushed me away slightly and retained her position of hugging Knight.
"You've been hugging him forever, and I just hugged him. What do you mean by 'that's enough'? Girl, I just found out that he's my brother!" I said and rolled my eyes, but she didn't budge; instead, she smirked, clinging onto Knight even more.
"I don't know where to start from but I want you guys to know that your dad and I are really sorry. If only I had known that we were going to turn out this way, I would have avoided it at all costs. Please, babies... forgive your mother," she said remorsefully, and I sighed.
Cody glanced at me and I remembered the conversation we had the other day, I won't deny..... I've missed the both of them and the reason I was so mad at them was because of Flinn but he's been found now.
"I'm no longer mad at you guys, if you guys could remember..... I told you guys that if Flinn is found I'll come back home and continue being a good daughter. He has been found and I want you guys to know that I forgive you guys"I said and mom sighed softly.
"Flinn??, Please talk to your mother, I know I've wronged you and I'm asking for forgiveness, As a father I shouldn't have forced my son to do an arranged marriage when he was just 14 because of my selfish gain...... I'm sorry Flinn, Please forgive your father"Dad said staring keenly at Knight. While we all waited for his response.
"It's fine dad, everything is all in the past so let's move on and I'm really glad to see you guys. Actually...... Everything happened for a reason, If I hadn't run away..... I wouldn't have met so many important people in my life right now"Knight said and everyone smiled immediately.
"Thank you so much son"Dad said and Knight nodded.
"We..... We also want you to come take over your dad's company, He has gotten old and we think it's best if you take over"Mom said and dad nodded too.
"The company??"Knight said and chuckled softly.
"I've got so many Company's already and it'll be best if you give it to Sasha" Knight said and my eyes widen immediately.
"You've got so many Company's??"Mom and dad asked but Knight just chuckled.
"Oh, and.......before I forget....... you guys are soon going to be grandparents too"Knight added and mom gasped.
" Bluey...... Bluey....is pregnant?? "Mom asked and immediately held Bluey's hand.
"Thank you very much, Bluey"Mom said and I noticed her voice changed, she's soon going to start crying.

HOSPITAL
REST ROOM
Bluey's point of view
"Urrm..... Where's Nina?"I asked immediately I saw just Nina walking into the restroom.
"Could you believe that, that annoying apple refused to come along with me"Sasha said with a scoff making me to laugh out loud.
"She refused to?, why..... I thought you both were fighting on who was going to follow me to the restroom, what made her change her mind?"I asked washing my hands.
"Obviously because of that dude,urmm..... what's even his name?,Right Keith....... the moment she saw him....... She began blushing like one of those Korean fan girls and immediately acted like I don't even exist"Sasha said sounding really annoyed and walked into one of the toilets.
"Awnnnn...... It's obviously her first time falling in love so let her be"I yelled staring at my reflection in the mirror and Sasha chuckled. It's so true, I've really gotten fat ,even my cheeks are so chubby now.
"I'm so glad I'm finally going to be leaving this god forsaken hospital"I said and sighed in relief.
"Yeah me too, I finally get to breath fresh air, the air in this hospital makes me feel sick"Sasha said from the toilet and I chuckled.
"It's just a matter of seconds, I mean I get to eat and wear whatever I want"I said and heard Sasha huffed immediately.
"Wear whatever you want indeed........As a matter of fact....... you should be talking about getting a lot of maternity clothes because you won't be able to wear all those your hot clothes anymore"Sasha said and I frowned immediately.
"What do you mean by I won't be able to wear my hot clothes anymore, I don't want to be fat"I said with a pout and l heard her laughed loudly.
"I'm also really happy that you've made peace with your mom and you guys are in good terms, to be sincere I used to feel really bad that sometimes I don't talk about my mom to you not to make you feel bad"I said and she chuckled.
"You didn't have to, although I won't deny I really missed her"Sasha said with a smile.
"So. ......When are you going back home?? "I asked. Her parents left after asking for forgiveness and She told her mom earlier on that she'll return back home that's why I'm asking.
"What's that foul smell??, Are you Pooping, Sasha?, You've been in there for a while"I said unable to breath.
"Yeah"She said with a groan.
"Ewwwww,you're pooping and talking at the same time??, You disgusting lady"I said and used my hand to pin my nose.
"What do you mean by 'disgusting lady'?"She said and I heard her chuckled.
"Can you just please stop talking already"I said and thank god she really did stop talking.
"Wow.....such a relief, could you believe I've been holding it in for more than a day"She said from inside and I heard her exhaled. Shortly after the door opened and she came out with a grin.
"What?, Why are you acting as if you don't poop"She said with a chuckle and began washing her hands.
"Yes I do and Please don't tell me how long you've been holding it in, Why would you even hold it in for that long?, No wonder it's smelling this much"I said with a scrunched face while she just kept on laughing. Okay..... Sasha can be really gross at times.
"Stop acting as if you don't poop"She said again and I rolled my eyes instead taking a step back.
"Are you starting to keep your distance from me?, You can't be mad at me girlfriend, It's not like I did it at somewhere inappropriate"She said with a mischievous grin and cleaned her hands with a dried towel.
"But seriously Bluey...... You've gotten really thick, Just take a look at your a$$, it's so big and damn ..... Look at those Boobs.......My brother is sure lucky to have you"Sasha said and I blushed immediately forgetting the fact that I was mad at her.
"Stop it Sasha"I said trying to hide my blush.
"Oh please, shy queen........So....... This means I'm going to become an aunt"Sasha said and hugged me. She has been so happy ever since she found out that Knight is her brother.
"Yeah, You look so happy and I love it..... I'm so glad you've finally found your brother"I said and she grinned happily.
"That's because I'm so happy bestie, I feel so complete right now and I don't even know how to express my happiness"She said with a chuckle.
"I never ever for once thought of Knight being my brother, I mean Flinn was so thin...... Who knew he was going to be this huge and well built when he grows up"She said and I chuckled immediately.
"Do you know what this also means??"She said and gasped loudly.
"What?"I asked with a raised eyebrow,wondering what she wants to say.
"It means that you get to be my sister-in-law too"She said and shriek excitedly.
"You know Bluey....... It's all thanks to you I found my brother"She said putting on a serious face.
"If you hadn't kissed him in the club,made him fall in love with you and chased after you, then it would have been really
"No Sasha, It's all thanks to you..... If you hadn't taken me to the club and dared me to kiss a stranger in that club... ...... Then I wouldn't have met my baby and believe me I don't even want to imagine how my life would have been without him"I muttered with a sigh.
"Yeah, I'm glad he's also getting discharged too, I really need some bonding time with him"Sasha said and I rolled my eyes.
"I also need a lot of bonding time with him too, I haven't had him for a while and I'm planning that after we both get home we're going to be f**king a lot"I said and noticed Sasha huffed immediately.
"You've been having him since, Bluey, Please let me have some time with my brother"She said and I chuckled immediately.
"Fine, whatever.....it's not like it's going to take forever........"I said and winked at her and she hugged me immediately.
"Thank you, Sister-in-law" She said and I chuckled.
"But seriously Bluey, We were really paired together by the heavens, We started as Bestfriends and now we're going to be sisters"She said and I smiled immediately.
"Yeah, God bless the heavens for sending someone like you to me as a bestfriend"I said hugging her back.
"Let's go back to the room,The guys must have began to panick because we've spent quite a time in here"Sasha said and broke the hug.
"Okay girlfriend "I said and held her hand,And we both walked out of the restroom heading for Knight's room.

#BACK AT KNIGHT'S ROOM#
"I was beginning to think that Bluey had gone into labor"Cody said and everyone in the room burst into laughter.
"Geez Babe, we didn't even take up to 10 minutes in there"Sasha said with an eye roll and sat down on his thighs.
"Of course you guys did, Look outside the window...... It has gotten dark"my mom said and everyone nodded.
"Well...... It wasn't my fault, Sasha was the one pooping and I had to wait for her, enduring the unbearable smell"I said before I could stop myself and everyone gasped immediately and burst into laughter.
"Bluey??, How could you say that to everyone"Sasha said with a red face staring at me and no one had to tell me that she's really embarrassed.
"Oh my gosh, I thought beautiful girls poop don't smell" Benjamin said making them to laugh harder.
"Shut up Benjamin, Can't you see that she's embarrassed already" Mom said using her palm to close his mouth.
Oh sh*t ,why did I say that out loud, I thought and immediately rushed to Knight before Sasha grabs me and teach me a lesson.
"It's okay Baby, It's not like we don't all poop"Cody said and burst into laughter making the rest of us join him in laughing.
"Stop it guys, That's my sister you're laughing at"Knight said and everyone stopped laughing immediately but then I noticed he was also holding back his laughter too.
"I'm sorry Sasha"I muttered but she glared at me instead.
"You're going to pay for this,Bluey,"She muttered and hid her face in Cody's chest and Just then,the door burst open and we turned to see a beautiful lady at the door, breathing heavily.
"Flinn?" she muttered with a smile.
"Baby, is that you?" she asked, and I frowned immediately she called him that.
"Esmeralda?" Knight murmured quietly, and I raised my eyebrows immediately.
Who is she, why is she calling Knight Baby??,and how does she even knows Knight's other name? I thought with a deep frown watching her closely.
